Funny shit...

"I think having the advanced stuff in your bag of goodies is a great thing to have... ...But, what do I know? I've been submitted in every tourny I've ever been in lol."

"What's basic for Ari may be complex for me." - Ari Bolden is a blue belt!!

"Twister might be totally basic for Eddie B, but for a guy who has been training just GJJ for equal amount of time Eddie has been training BJJ/10P, it would be advanced/fancy/complex."

"Yes, the basics are all you need. In a way, Eddie was a fluke. But he was a well thought out, premeditated, and meticulous fluke whose 4 years of highschool wrestling and how many years of BJJ? defeated a lifetime of BJJ experience." - People seem to be remembering the Royler Gracie fight differently to me... I didn't see any twister stuff (from HS wrestling) and no rubber guard other than standard high guard stuff ala Schembri etc.

"And how do us normal civilians approach victory over god chosen BJJ gods who from the age of 2 have been training in the "basics"?"
The same way guys like gunnar nelson, bj penn and jacare beat them starting around the ages of 17.

bear in mind most of these guys are white belts, at never a point will come where i refer to myself in any of these ways "I'm the guy that or i'm insane at" If i do i deserve to get an ass kicking.
